I only stayed one night before my flight out of Malaysia and I regret that I didn’t stay longer. The house and the vibe is really cool. Kind of modern industrial style. The house seems huge and there are enough chill out places and clean bathrooms. The rooms are very simple and small but for me totally enough. The hosts were very nice and I received several recommendations of activities via what’s app. You get free water, coffee and tea and also traditional bread. There is a small kitchen to use. I really liked the accommodation and the location of it. Would definitely come again!!

It was super comfortable, the little bunks had everything you need and the whole place was spotlessly clean! But the woman who runs the hostel was the highlight - she was incredibly friendly and gave me lots of great recommendations for where to eat in Georgetown.

The hostel staff was very welcoming and kind. They also prepared an itinerary for us, which was really nice! There is free water, coffee… The rooms are clean and have everything they need. The bathroom facilities were also clean. We lost something there and the staff was so kind and sent it to us all the way to Kuala Lumpur - all in all, very good price-performance ratio, nice staff and cozy environment.
